DUE: In my hands on February 28, 2011 (pm or look in address thread for my address)

THEME: The Fabric of Our Lives--please use a piece or pieces of fabric somewhere on the front of your card. This is a good time to use those muslin strips we swapped a few months back, or you can piece a quilt block, or create a scene, or make a fabric flower or.........the possibilities are endless.

FORMAT: This is a 4 for 4 swap. You create 4 cards; you will get 4 cards back. Please only include envelopes if your cards are not standard size.

INCLUDE: Postage for the return and an address label or self addressed stamped envelope. I will try to reuse envelopes if I can.

INSPIRATION: If you need a kick start you can use the images posted here for some inspiration. The quilt block is a variegated star from a quilt I'm working on; the 2 fabric paintings are from http://www.paintingswithfabric.com/index.php; check it out if you'd like to be wowed by the use of fabric.

Those are great examples!! I need to shop for some talent!!!

Those fabric paintings are awesome........and Paula - let me know when you find where I can pick up some "talent"

Diana
oh, I really do have an idea for these cards - something I did 6 yrs ago in Texas

Where the "h e double tooth picks" did February go? Anybody playing this month? I haven't even started, but I'll get my rear in gear this week end. If anybody wants the week end I'll bump the due date out till March 3 so you can mail on Monday.

Mine are done-- I will get them to you next Wednesday if that is okay?

Thanks, Rachelle, for the change. I was going to skip it, but now I can play.

Yep, I figured I could get yours and Diana's at the next PAO at Paula's day and we could all use the extra time.

Yeah, Beth! looking forward to seeing them.

Rachelle,
I'm sorry I did not get to this. I'll admit that I am not good with fabric and just could not come up with something creative. But I swear I will do my best to participate next month.

playing? They should probably hit the mail by tomorrow if you're playing this month.

I have some if we play this month. Or not! They will fit next month too!

Rachelle, I just didn't finish until tonight. No excuses except PSL and taxes and vacation. Just didn't get on it fast enough.

I can be postal tomorrow (2nd) if you can wait.

I can wait Beth. It's just you, me and Paula this month so you'll only be getting 2 new ones. If you want you can save them and send with the March ones if you're playing this month. Can save a little postage that way.

They're postal, all 4 of them. I was in too big a hurry this morning and didn't read the whole message. Do send me back the funky one. You'll recognize it.

They arrived, Beth! I can't figure out which one is the funky one, unless it's the one where the bird is in a different position.
